Aviz Networks details ONES capabilities and adds Parantap Lahiri

Summary

Aviz Networks announced that Parantap Lahiri, VP Network and Datacenter Engineering at eBay, joined its Technical Advisory Board. The update matters for enterprise network and security teams evaluating SONiC adoption and multi-vendor network management.

Research Overview

The announcement centers on Aviz’s role in enabling enterprise adoption of SONiC, described as “Software for Open Networking in the Cloud.” It frames the effort as support for multi-vendor network environments and transitions from proprietary network operating system stacks to open-source NOS.

Aviz also described ONES as part of its multi-vendor SONiC stack, positioned to add capabilities beyond the NOS itself.

Key Findings

Aviz stated that Lahiri’s appointment brings experience deploying SONiC “at scale in a large enterprise environment.” It also said his background includes networking and network technologies, tied to cloud network direction.

The company presented the Technical Advisory Board appointment as support for its network and datacenter engineering guidance and for customer-facing execution.

Technical Breakdown

Aviz ONES is described as a layer above SONiC intended to provide orchestration and “visibility” across an enterprise fabric. The description connects these capabilities to “information and automation” across the network stack.

In the same brief, Aviz characterized ONES as a key pillar within its multi-vendor SONiC stack for enterprises.

Operational Impact

Aviz positioned its approach for enterprises looking to replicate what it described as hyper-scalers’ use of open-source NOS. It specifically linked this positioning to hardware choices, cost savings, and the control enterprises can exert compared with proprietary stacks.

The operational framing ties these outcomes to the use of SONiC alongside Aviz ONES in multi-vendor environments.

Leadership Perspective

Aviz said Lahiri’s involvement adds technical expertise and leadership focused on SONiC deployments. It also connected the appointment to network enablement for enterprise teams moving to open-source NOS.

The announcement states that Aviz’s Technical Advisory Board includes Lahiri in a role described as a “Technical Advisory Board” position.
